Chapter 1036

He should have left the capital before the incident broke out!
But for the sake of his own future, he was also reluctant to leave the capital in such a disheveled manner, thinking that if the plan was successful, then he would be able to get high-ranking officials and blessings at his fingertips.

But things didn't go as they planned.

Fortunately, he was alert and ran away when he knew someone was going to kill Meng Qiaoqiao. Otherwise, how could he stand here now?
But he can't recruit the person who instigated him, he is a ruthless master, he is going to be a high official, he doesn't want to die now, and his family is still in the hands of others!
Meng Qiaoqiao insisted that she did it herself.

Li Chang said that he didn't know anything about it. If he knew, he wouldn't let Meng Qiaoqiao stop her from doing such a heartless thing. He also blamed himself regretfully, saying that he was useless and didn't realize it. Meng Qiaoqiao's evil intentions said that she was sorry for those children who were victimized.

Li Chang's words were impassioned, and his eyes were red and almost shed tears. The crowd was moved by him, saying that the matter really had nothing to do with him.

Xiao Shu looked at Yang Yushi coldly.

The Secretary of the Criminal Department is the emperor's confidant, and he is in charge of the criminal department who has never seen any prisoners, so he will not be shaken by Li Chang's words.

So Xiao Shu was a little worried about Yang Yushi.

But fortunately, Yang Yushi was not a person who could be moved by a few words, so he had no intention of opening his face with a straight face.

Of course, there would be no results if the trial continued, so I withdrew from the court.

Li Chang was imprisoned in the cell opposite Meng Qiaoqiao, and he was also under strict guard.

"Mr. Li...how can you be..." Meng Qiaoqiao looked at Li Chang opposite with tears in her eyes.

There were people watching them beside them, so Meng Qiaoqiao didn't dare to say anything else.

Li Chang shook his head at her and closed his eyes as if not wanting to speak.

Meng Qiaoqiao knew what he meant and didn't say anything else.

The two wanted to stay there quietly, but Xiao Shu would not let them do so, and after a while someone came and took Li Chang out.

Meng Qiaoqiao knew that this was torture for him, so she shouted anxiously, "Where are you taking him? I said that this matter has nothing to do with Mr. Li, it was all done by me, and it was my own idea. If you want to use your heart, you can torture me, if you want to kill me, you can kill me, it has nothing to do with Mr. Li..."

Shouting while afraid of knocking on the door.

However, Li Chang was still taken away.

Meng Qiaoqiao sat on the ground bewildered.

Mr. Li is a scholar, can he stand it?
If he couldn't take it anymore and recruited, who would rescue them then?She has been subjected to so many tortures and has never confessed to Li Chang. Isn't she just hoping that Li Chang can do as he promised himself, and will he save herself if he can be named on the gold list next year?

Now that both of them are imprisoned, who will rescue them?
……

Li Chang had already been caught, so Xiao Shu went home early and returned to the Hou Mansion in the evening.

"It's so early today?" Song Mujin was also very happy to see that he came back early. Duoduo in her arms also grinned after seeing Xiao Shu, and stretched out his hand to him.

For more than half a month, Xiao Shu didn't wake up when he went out in the morning, and Duoduo usually fell asleep when he came back at night, so Duoduo was very happy to see him today.

Xiao Shu was not in a hurry to hug him, first raised his hand to touch his face, waited until he changed his clothes and washed his hands and face before reaching out to pick up his son.

"Has Li Chang recruited?" Song Mujin asked.

Then Li Chang is just a scholar from out of town, what is he going to do with Xiao Shu and the Fifth Prince?Obviously someone ordered him to do so.

Xiao Shu shook his head, "Not yet, I guess he won't last long."

That's all because Li Chang has a good mouth because he has read books, but he is much more afraid of death than Meng Qiaoqiao.

"Then Li Chang is a scholar, and what attracts him must be his career, so there must be nothing wrong with the person we started to suspect." Song Mujin said.

How can ordinary people guarantee Li Chang's official career?And let Li Chang take the risk of offending Fifth Brother.

From the very beginning, they circled a few suspects, but they didn't know which one it would be.

Because from the perspective of those who were skeptical, everyone has been calm and inactive for the past half month.

So the key is to pry open Li Chang's mouth.

……

At night, there was no news of the torturers in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, but Li Chang's details had already been found out.

He is the distant cousin of the third concubine's grandfather.

"Third concubine?" Song Mujin frowned suspiciously, "How could they?" After a pause, she looked at Xiao Shu and asked, "Who is the husband and wife getting closer to recently?"

If the husband and wife are smart, then don't get involved in the battle for the position, and live their own lives quietly. No matter who wins, they will not treat them badly, because the third prince Disabled will not be a threat.

Xiao Shu thought for a while and said, "Since the third prince's accident, the husband and wife have been keeping a low profile. I don't want them to make friends with people in secret and make such a trick out of it!"

"Has someone sent a message from Fifth Brother?" Xiao Shu asked Milan.

"Well, someone has already sent a message to His Highness the Fifth Highness." Milan nodded and replied.

Xiao Shu nodded his head slightly, and said, "You go and check the family of the third concubine's mother and her maternal grandfather's family."

The fifth brother at the third prince's mansion will ask someone to check it immediately.
